It is time to register expenses for this year's wellness allowance before it goes unused. By 30 November, expenses must be registered on the PA website.

Autumn is here, and it is high time to use your wellness allowance for 2025. The maximum amount of the allowance is SEK 3,000 per employee per calendar year. It applies to all activities that the Swedish Tax Agency approves — gym cards, yoga, dance, boxing, ski lessons, for example.

To ensure your expenses are included in the December payroll, you need to register your expenses by 30 November at the latest. Receipts submitted after this date cannot be credited toward the 2025 allowance even if the purchase was made in December. However, depending on the type of activity, some receipts may be eligible for next year’s allowance, in accordance with the Swedish Tax Agency’s rules.
